“The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.”
― Mahatma Gandhi  

As the What About Peace? contest deadline approaches, we wanted to encourage you to participate in our People's Choice Award, and nominate your Human Rights Hero.

Help us honor the human rights heroes who are making a difference – whether they’re in your neighborhood or halfway around the world! Join us in shining a spotlight on those unsung heroes working for peace, justice, and sustainability.         

It’s easy. Just log on to Global Exchange’s Human Rights Awards website, and nominate and vote for YOUR Human Rights Hero/Heroine. The last day to nominate and vote is March 19, 2012.

Your nominations and votes help determine who will win Global Exchange’s People’s Choice Award and take home $1,000 to use towards their important work.

You nominate. You vote. You decide.

This award means a great deal to the winners, and this honor is an important way to strengthen the efforts of their work. Past People’s Choice honorees include Mexican Poet/Activist Javier Sicilia and Cambodian human rights activist Mu Sochua. Help us choose the 2012 Honoree.
 
What are you waiting for? It's easy and free! Log on to www.HumanRightsAward.org.

The power to choose this year’s People’s Choice Award winner is in your hands. Help us celebrate everyday human rights hero(s) and heroine(s).

Sincerely,

P.S. Join us at the Human Rights Awards Gala on May 10, 2012 in San Francisco or you can participate in our exciting online auction. Visit humanrightsaward.org for more details.
